MERCH!
Giant Bomb - a website about video games and the people that make them

OK so, let me start by saying that despite being a yearly subscriber since 2012 and having probably one of the first accounts to sign up when the site launched in '08, I don't write a lot on here or interact with the community much at all. I visit the site daily, watch damn near every livestream, and haven't missed a podcast in the 7 years this site has been around. Point is, Giant Bomb is impo...

Spoilers below, so don't read on unless you've beaten the game. Wow, what a way to end the trilogy. It had the usual Layton formula, you follow the story being led on and thinking you've got everything pretty well solved. Having fun, solving puzzles along the way. Then Layton comes out of left field having figured everything out for real. But then the very last moments before the credits rolled...

Who is Mr. Saturn? We all are Mr. Saturn! Zoom! Boing! Ding! Something I've had sitting in my GMod folder that many people have wanted to download, I fixed it up a bit and released it. Download link at the bottom! Extract to garrysmod/garrysmod/addons

Something I've been working on, I'm currently in the process of ripping all the mask models. I just really love the menu I made. :D

I just released a redone version of an old SEnt I made for Garrysmod. Hope you guys enjoy it!

Holy crap, thinking way back... the original GB and GBC Pokemon games are the backbone of my childhood. These songs bring back such awesome memories and feelings, holy shit. I also found this, which is pretty sweet. Oh man .

The final image in this video pretty much made me lose it, if the song and illustrations weren't enough. MOTHER 3 SPOILERS! Seeing Ness standing in front of the Absolutely Safe Capsule like that, is just about the best thing ever.

It's definitely one of the best games I've ever played, and not so much for the puzzles, but the entire atmosphere the game presents you with. It just makes you feel good. I don't think I turned my DS off once since I started, just left it in sleep mode between short bursts of playing it. The warmness of the whole experience together with the great story and writing, and characters, and the ani...

Ryan posted something interesting here . I listened to it and it was so cheesy but I really liked it. I downloaded it... Direct link to the song I've been listening to it while browsing this site and even though it's super cheesy, it hits me with a weird feeling. I started thinking of what was going on at the beginning of this year, and how excited I was that these guys were setting up a websit...

Specs: Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 Wolfdale 3.0Ghz (Stock) Sapphire Radeon HD4850 512MB 2GB DDR2 G.Skill RAM 600W OCZ StealthXStream PSU Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3L LGA 775 Mobo Still on Windows XP, got the Very High "Tweak" for Crysis. So psyched, will be uploading some more videos soon. Just thought I'd get the main one out there.

Something I've been working on for a few months. It's a recreation of the Pikmin creatures, for use in the Half Life 2 mod Garry's Mod . Coded by me using the GMod's built-in lua implementation. Models are by Nintendo , from Pikmin 2 and were ripped and animated by FluxMage . Video: Download: Comments and criticism appreciated! Thank you and enjoy!

Me holding the epic gold-holo cartridge I'm sure most people who know me will easily figure out how much I prefer Zelda: Majora's Mask over any other Zelda game, or any video game period. I obsess over it and can't stop talking about it. Anyway, I thought I'd make a blog-post dedicated to one of the greatest games ever! The game's title screen Majora's Mask is arguably the darkest, saddest, mos...

Before I start I'd like to say that I'm only using certain companies and games as examples and am not pin-pointing one fanboy type in particular. I'm simply using them as the examples! I know people who won't play a game or even try it because it's made by Nintendo. Does that make anyone else cringe, or is that just me? Missing out on games like Super Mario Galaxy , the Pikmin series, or the ma...

Take some time and post some big articles, and put them in your own words. Sure, get some reference from Wiki-pedia or wherever, but don't just copy and paste. The articles I've written so far (only one has been approved) have only needed help from other sources for the overview, everything else is coming from my experiences with the game. They net you big buck-er... points. I've got a few more...

Screenshots... and wiki articles. I'm dedicating today to submitting as much of those two things as I can. Let's hope I can get 1000+ points by the time they're approved! Also short blog toast. By the way, this wasn't complaining about approval times... I just wanted a spiffy title...

Now that everyone is getting settled into Giant Bomb, I thought I'd talk about what I think of the site, and it's features. Starting off, I'd like to say that I love how everything is based off the community, it's risky but I think it'll really work well in the end. Just being able to go onto a page, about my favorite games, and edit anything I want is almost magical in a sense. A community of...

Getting settled into my new gaming home, I'd like to start by saying great work to the guys for their hard work. (Jeff and Ryan most of all) I was about to go to sleep last night and thought I'd check the site one last time, maybe it'd be up? It was! So I had to stay up an extra hour to get my profile set up early and check out the awesomeness that is Giantbomb.com. So far I've already added to...
